What should I do if I just got a cold in the early stages of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

28-year-old female, I and my husband started trying to conceive from the beginning of our marriage, and now I'm pregnant. I'm just very worried. Please ask what to do if you catch a cold in the early stages of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that you drink more water, eat easily digestible foods, get more rest, stay warm, maintain a positive mood, ensure a continuous supply of indoor air, maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular survival routine, and get sufficient deep sleep. Most colds are caused by viruses, with a natural course of 3-5 days. If your temperature is below 38 degrees, drinking more water and getting more rest should not be a problem. It is also advised to avoid spicy and irritating foods, inhaling cold air, smoke, dust, and other harmful gases. Avoid exposure to cold, staying up late, overexertion, excessive stress, and visiting crowded public places.
